Many people come to see the Nelson Fire and Rescue Hall, where fire technology has evolved from its very beginnings, when bucket brigades were the only way to put out a fire to the times of wagons pulled by horses to current fire engines. In 1891, the first firefighters began serving the city to protect the city from a serial arsonist. The current Nelson Fire and Rescue Hall was completed in 1913. This is the same location where many of the scenes from Roxanne were filmed in 1986.
